Abstract: The prior art suffered from problems such as communication quality degradation including reductions in network throughput, delays, and cell loss. An additional problem was the consumption of large amounts of the VCI and VPI required at links between nodes of each connection due to the use of a plurality of connections. In response to these problems, according to the routing system of the present invention, the plurality of connections are not changed for sections in which the routes to be taken are different but are consolidated into one connection for sections in which the routes to be taken are the same; and a connecting device provided at the node, which are set up for a plurality of connections to either or to both the input and output sides, discretionary makes either a first connection, which is either the plurality of connections or one consolidated connection, to the input side, or a second connection, which is either the plurality of connections or. one consolidated connection, to the output side.

Abstract: An outboard motor stow pivot bracket is disclosed for stowing a motor in a generally vertical orientation while mounted on the transom of a dinghy which itself is swung beamwise (on beam ends) from a horizontal, in-the-water position up into a generally vertical stowed position on the back of a carrier boat such as on the stern of a pleasure craft. The pivot bracket includes a channel structure sized to fit on the motor-support edge of the dinghy transom and has outside surfaces adapted to receive the standard transom clamp of an outboard motor. At opposite ends of the channel structure are a pair of complementary pivot journals, and a pivot bolt connects a selected one of these pivot journals to a support structure on the dinghy transom in a universal construction that allows the user to assemble the bracket for pivoting in one direction or the other, depending upon the desired orientation of the motor and of the dinghy in their stored positions. A locking toggle connected between the channel structure and support on the dinghy transom locks the channel structure and the clamped motor in the stored position pivoted 90 degrees to the support edge of the dinghy transom.

Abstract: This invention comprises of high-density fuels dispersed with atomized spherical particles and the fuel fabrication processes.      Comparing with the conventional method, this has many advantages for the direct formation of meta-stable .gamma. -U phase, the process simplification, the minimization of fabrication space, the improvements of production yield, fuel productivity, powder purity  and fuel formability, a higher thermal conductivity in real heat flow direction, the decrease of as-fabricated porosity, and a smaller thermal swelling.        Uranium and alloying metals are charged in a heat-resistant crucible having a stopper and a small orifice. The atomizer chamber is evacuated up to the vacuum degree of above 10 -3 torr using vacuum pumps. Uranium and alloying metals charged in the crucible are melted by vacuum induction or arc heating. The alloy melt is fed through a nozzle onto a rotating disk. Then melt droplets are formed and spread by the centrifugal force of rotating disk. The flying fine droplets are cooled rapidly (above 10 4 °C /sec in cooling rate) under an inert atmosphere of argon or helium gas due to the large specific surface area.
